EXCITING INCIDENTS.

On the moment the trap fell in the
building and the word reached the
outside, half a dozen incidents oc-
Cured to throw the crowded streets
into the widest excitement. AS the
throngs were crowding forward to
East Chicago avenue patrol came
down on the crowd at full speed, with
a gong ringing. The wagon few on

countered mass OF struggling beings
that could not give way. In the GEN.

excitement the man whirled and
whipped
A LARGE REVOLVER
From his hip pocket, but just as
quickly an officer seized the man and
wrenched the revolver from his hand.
The man was dragged to the patrol
box amid the concentrating crowds
and swelling tumult.

Was sent in and it was in response tt
this that the patrol wagon dashed up

all the world will know to-day
all our efforts have been in vain.
Whether the alleged bomb-thrower
who, it ia said, has been discovered in
New York would have saved them
is a question that cannot be
answered as the application has been
too late. All is over now-I did all l
could"
The news was at once despatched
to Chicago, and thus ended the many
many petitions and powerful appeals
that have been brought to bear upon
Governor Oglesby during the past few
days.

AT SPRINGFIELD.
Captain Black Makes Last
Energetic Appeal.

Energetic Appeal.
SPRINGFIELD, November 11.-Cap-
tain Black, counsel for the condemned
Anarchists, arrived here this morn
ing at $50 O'Clock, and solicited a
special interview with the Governor
at the Executive mansion. He is
now making the last appeal for the
lives of the condemned Anarchists.
The interview is private between the
Governor and Black alone, and the
public and press reporters are denied
admittance.
POWERFUL PLEADING.
At $50 Captain Black is still in
conference with the Governor. He is
being seconded in his appeal by j. R.
Buchanan. Only one other friend of
the Anarchists is present. They beg
for respite for all the condemned
men until an opportunity can be
given for substantiation of the New
York report that the identity of the
actual bomb thrower can be estab-
lished. The indications are that the
Governor will take no action.
THE aONEhNOh hEFUoEo.
$50 A. M.-The conference is at an
end, and the Governor has just an
nounced his final and irrevocable de-
cision. He emphatically refuses to
further interfere in behalf of the con-
demned.
DID ALL HE COULD.
Captain Black, on coming out Of
the Mansion, said to an Associated
Press reporter: II have done the
best could in this final appeal to the
Governor, but he firmly refuses tc
interfere. But though the decision il
against us, 1 believe the Governor is
acting in accordance with what he
believes to be best"

After the hanging the center of at.

waukee avenue, where the wild.
ow and brother of the dead man
waited to receive them. There was.
AN EAGER, CURIOUS CROWD
Hanging arc und the shop, and
though fully one hundred persons
followed the black wagon that trans.
ferred the remains to Engel's old
home the crowd did not seem to
diminish in the least. The people
pushed and crowded to get sight OF
the store in the rear of which Lingg's
body lay. While the undertaken did
his best to make the mangled face
more slightly, it was
A DIFFICULT TASK.
1t was some hours atterthat Engel't
body lay in state in his old home
beside the suicide. The remains were
placed in a neat easket with silver
trimmings, exactly like that holding
Engel's body. Hundreds OF friends Of
the dead men fled into and Out
of the little shop, and took
LAST LOOK .j
At the faces almost strange to them
from the lapse of time. At one end
of the store Mrs. Engel sat with eyes
red from weeping, and her fac,
shrouded with black veil.
Edna Muller sat beside the casket
which held all that remained on the
earth of her lover. Her face was as
pale as death and she D.-
sOBBEp CONSTANTLY
As sympathizing friends filed in and
out. Further up, at No. 596, is an
other undertaker's shop, where the
bodies of Spies, Parsons and Fischer
were cared for. Mrs. Parsons was the
most noticeable person here. She sat
with her back to the window through
which hundreds of eager, curious
eyes peered at a woman clothed in
black with her face covered by a
heavy veil, and who held Mrs. Par
sons hands. This was Mrs. Van
Zandt, and she was
DEEPLY AFFECTED,
As were the Anarchists wives. A
small bowed figure sat in one corner
on q low stool. 1t was Mrs.
Spies, the Anarchists mother, and
her head was buried in her hands,
and they were almost in her lap. She
rocked to and fro in
AN AGONY OF GRIEF,
Strangely at variance with the actions
of Mrs. Parsons, who sat upright and
looked toward where the body of her
husband lay with her eyes fixed in a
stony stare. They were large and
lustrous, but seemed to have lost all
power of weeping.

SCENES OUTSIDE.
Intense Excitement Prevailed
No Serious Disturbance,

NO SC1bOe4S OA0tut UduCcs
The news of Mrs. Parsons arrest
caused momentary ripple Of excite
ment. "That woman is more to be
feared than thousand rioters," said
an officer and that was the general
sentiment. Little groups Of men con-
gregated on street corners and in the
corridors of the city hall. They con-
suited their watches. "They are get
tink them ready" said one, coming
from the telephone room and the
hushed expectancy increased. When
the news that the end had come
finally reached the public there was
but little excitement.
#Ns POSTING THE POLICE.
When the intelligence came outside
that the men were on the scafold the
police went to the northeastern corner
of Illinois street and waited. On the
roof of the court building, where one
could look through the big Jail win
dows, there were posted nine police
men. From their position they could
see the scaffold and the condemned
upon it. AS the
. GRIM MOMENT APPROACHED ,l5
The men on the roof kept the officers
below informed of the proceedings in
side. AS twelve o'clock drew near a
policeman who was straining his eyes
to see to the interior of the Jail raised
his hand and without turning his
head aside said in
A THRILLING UNDERToNE:
"They are putting on the cap" For
an instant the cluster of officers waited
below with abated breaths and heads
half inclined to one side, waiting to
hear the news of the drop.
A LOUD THUMP
Came from the interior of the jail, it
was the sound made by the falling
trap. Every one in the group heard
it distinctly, and everybody knew
what it meant. The expectation of
the walters broke up quickly. The
policemen on the roof threw down
their guns and clapped their hands,
and then ceased suddenly, as though
ashamed OF their act. A reporter
drawing white handkerchief from
his pocket.
WAVED IT AS A SIGNAL
To the crowds passing along North
Clark street. 1t was understood and
a cry went up, and in an incredibly
short space OF time the information
was blocks away. The buzz and hum
of excited conversation sounded like
the rising of tie tide. Armed patrol
men stopped in their regular tramp
and dropped the butts of their guns to
the earth with a clatter; others broke
out in hoarse shouts to the crowds of
"Move on! Move on!" In eight min
utes the newsboys were darting
through the crowds bawling out: ''Ex-
ira! Extra All about the hanging of
the Anarchists !"

THE SUSPENSE OVER,
And the MOmentary Exctteme
Soon Gains Down.

Soon Gains Down.
1t was wonderful to note how quickly
the excitement which had filled the
jail all the morning calmed down.
The prisoners confined in the place,
who had been in fever heat during
the tragic event Of the day, regained
their usual spirits and they cracked
Jokes from cell to cell. The spectators
who had witnessed the hanging
walked rapidly out of the enclosure
and the weary deputies went to din
ner, the only one left in the Jail office
being press representatives.

More utter contempt Of death
Was probably never shown by any
four men. From the first moment of
the morning till the day closed upon
them they would not see a shadow
either of ignominy or OF the here
after. The seven hours from dawn till
the hour they passed to eternity were
crowded full OF events as stirring as a
day of battle, beginning with fiat re-
fusal in the very face Of death to ac-

trailing reins westward into the crowd.
The crowd aroused by this succession
OF exciting events broke into the
Widest TURBULENCE
In an effort to escape from the scene
of peril. The police then fixed bayo-
nets and made feint at charging upon
the crowd, stopping just short Of them
and forcing the people away with the
butts of their guns. The effect of this
was satisfactory, and Kinzie street
was soon cleared without any casual
ties.

1t is estimated that he made fifty OF

are couched in the following words:

Fischer, Cook County Jail. 1t was
exactly an hour after the execution,
wh-n the men began taking down the
scafold. and within two hours all
evidences of the tragedy were gone.

walked into the Jail to learn how the
execution had proceeded and were in
turn questioned as to how the citizens
outside had acted. "There was abso-
